From text date to text date

Hi guys, how can I get from
April 2012 to 201201 ?
april2012 is an nvarchar(max)...
Don't mention it...is not my database.
Thanks

Done...
select
Convert (nvarchar(6), cast (replace(column1,'-','') as datetime), 112)
it was something dirty
Thanks everyone
One small thing to note is date values coming from source has to be in consistent format otherwise it may break. This is especially important when source is a file

  • Using servlets to read from text file and insert data

    Hi,
    Can I use a servlet to read from a space delimited text file on the client computer and use that data to insert into a table in my database? I want to make it easy for my users to upload their data without having to have them use SQL*Loader. If so can someone give me a hint as how to get started? I appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Colby

    Create a page for the user to upload the file to your webserver and send a message (containing the file location) to a server app that will open the file, parse it, and insert it into your database. Make sure you secure the page.
    or
    Have the user paste the file into a simple web form that submits to a servlet that parses the data and inserts it into your db.

  • How can I Cache the data I'm reading from a collection of text files in a directory using a TreeMap?

    How can I Cache the data I'm reading from a collection of text files in a directory using a TreeMap? Currently my program reads the data from several text files in a directory and the saves that information in a text file called output.txt. I would like to cache this data in order to use it later. How can I do this using the TreeMap Class? These are the keys,values: TreeMap The data I'd like to Cache is (date from the file, time of the file, current time).

    I don't understand your question.
    If you don't know how to use TreeMap why do you think a TreeMap is the correct solution for what you want to do?
    If you are just asking how to use TreeMap then there are PLENTY of tutorials on the internet and the Java API provides the methods that area available.
    TreeMap (Java Platform SE 7 )
    Are you sure you want a map and not a tree instead?

    This a test description.This a test description.
    This a test description. This a test description.I exported the above content from PHP as a SQL script file (insert into.. ) - export.sql [ insert into table_name (id, text_content) values (1, '') ]
    while exporting data from PHP table into export file.. it replaced the "Carriage return" with "\r\n\r\n" in the insert statement for text_content column
    When I run this INSERT statement in Oracle (for longtext, I have created a CLOB column in Oracle), the following text_content data is inserted into CLOB column in Oracle.
    SECTION - 2
    This a test description.This a test description.\r\n\r\nThis a test description.This a

    BUT textarea displays the entire content including "\r\n\r\n" as mentioned in SECTION - 2
    I want to display the content in textarea (item - P1_TEXT_CONTENT) without "\r\n\r\n" same as the original content with "Carriage return" as mentioned in SECTION - 1
    What are the options we have?

    What are the options we have?Run an update on the Oracle table following the inserts to replace the escaped CR/LFs with real ones:
    update foo
    set clob_column = replace(clob_column, '\r\n', chr(13) || chr(10));You might want to experiment to see which characters are actually necessary. As an OS X/Linux user I'd probably just use a single LF chr(10).

  • Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

    Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

    Hi
    As per the information and details provided by you, when you copy & paste a data from server to Outlook, word, notepad, then you do not receive the Chinese text.
    For Outlook, please follow these steps: -
    Close and reopen Outlook in your western locale (or switch the windows system to your Western locale if you changed that),
    Manually change the message from Western to Chinese encoding, which you can do in all versions up to Outlook 2007.
    If you want to stay in your Chinese locale in Outlook 2007, then:
    After you hit reply, go to the Option tab > More Options.
    In the Encoding drop-down menu, select the Chinese encoding you are working in (Not the encoding used by the person who will receive the message)
    Note:
    To set the Chinese locale in all versions up to 2007 the controls are under.
    Tools > Options. In Outlook 2010 File tab > Options > Advanced > International options.
    Unicode (UTF-8)
    is a good setting for multilingual users.
    Check the
    Auto select 2007)/ Automatically select (2010) encoding box.

  • How to put the return data from webservice to a text field

    Dear All ,
    I created a function module for calculating the square of the input given  and created a webservice using the create webservice option available for function modules.
    function module:-
    FUNCTION ZJK_FLEX_TEST.
    *"*"Local Interface:
    *"  IMPORTING
    *"     VALUE(DATA) TYPE  ZSLNO OPTIONAL
    *"  EXPORTING
    *"     VALUE(DATA1) TYPE  ZSLNO
    *"  TABLES
    *"      IT_DAT STRUCTURE  ZWBSER OPTIONAL
    data: wa_dat LIKE LINE OF it_dat.
    data1 = DATA * data.
    wa_dat-results =  data * data .
    APPEND wa_dat TO it_dat.
    ENDFUNCTION.
    and i passed the it_dat in table fields and data1 in the export paramenters of FM.
    but in the flex i am not getting the table values. but i am able to get the data1 value. but the problem is . I am getting it as an XML format.
    <s0:ZJK_FLEX_TEST.Response xmlns:s0="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
      <DATA1>0000025</DATA1>
    </s0:ZJK_FLEX_TEST.Response>
    so how to set the value of data1 to my text field in the flex .

    Hi Jay,
    resultFormat="e4x" will give you resultset in XMLListCollection otherwise resultset will be an ArrayCollection.
    For your example try with this statement after web service result:
    txtInput.text = ws.ZJK_FLEX_TEST.lastResult.DATA1.toString();
    where ws is id for web srvc and txtinput is a simple textInput control UI.
    I hope this will solve your query.

Once this doc is loaded to our web server and a user opens or downloads the file they can check the boxes but cannot enter any text into the text fields. Am I missing something?
    Thanks in advance

  • Using a sum formula with a data and text row?

    In 9.3.1 Financial reporting.
    One row is retrieving values from essbase connection and is a data row
    the second row is a fixed amount (390K) and was entered as a text row.
    The third row is the formula row that sums up row 1 and row 2
    However the total shows only the value of the data row (row 1)
    I read the doc and it doesn't say you cannot do a formula between data and text rows but it doesn't see to work. Anyone get by this without having to create a dimension to dump a fixed number in to report off of?
    JTS

    You are right on.. A text row by definition and functionality is to be considered as a text, and not as a number [Even though the text can be number based].
    Did you try something like this?
    sum(row[41],390)
    As you referred, you can always add a member in essbase DB

  • Problem with Refreshing the data bound text fields

    Folks,
    First of all, this a GREAT product and I am moving my apps from Eclipse to Studio Creator. I am very impessed with it so far.
    I am gone through most tutorials, but can't help resolve the problem that I am having. I have a page, that lists all the users in a table. When you click on any user, it opens up another page that lists the detail of the specific user you have clicked on. This a typical use in most web applications, right?
    In the user detail page, I open it in "Read" only mode, by setting the "setReadOnly" to true for all text field components. Then users can edit it by clicking "Edit" button. Edit button just changes the "setReadOnly" to false, to allow editing. After editing, they can hit the "Save" button to save the changes. In the save button, I call this code:
    public void prerender() {
            try {
                userID=getSessionBean1().getUserID();
                getSessionBean1().getWeb_userRowSetUserDetail().setObject(1,userID);
                getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().refresh();
                info("prerender: Refresh called");
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                error("Error in userForm.prerender():"+ex.getMessage()+ex.getStackTrace());
                log("Error in userForm.prerender():", ex);
            setReadWrite();
    public String btnSave_action() {
            try {
                getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().commitChanges();
                getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().refresh();
                info("Data Provider Refreshed in SAVE");
                _readOnly=true;
                form1.discardSubmittedValues("saveVForm");
                info("User Updated New:"+userID);
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                log("Error Description", ex);
            return null;
        public String btnEdit_action() {
            try {
                _readOnly=false;
                //info("User ID Edt="+getSessionBean1().getUserID());
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                error("Error in userForm.btnEdit_action:"+ex.getMessage()+ex.getStackTrace());
                log("Error in userForm.btnEdit_action():", ex);
            return null;
        private void setReadWrite(){
            // Set read-only to true or false for all text fiels
            this.btnEdit.setVisible(_readOnly);
            this.btnSave.setVisible(!_readOnly);
            this.user_id.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_email_client.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_email_office.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_fname.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_lname.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_id.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_password.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_password_conf.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_phone_cell.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_phone_cell_aac.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_phone_client.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_phone_home.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
            this.user_phone_office.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        }When the save button is clicked, the database is updated (as I can verify by looking directly into the database), but the data-bound text fields do not display the new value. YES, I am calling refresh() on data provider? I tried to call refresh in both "preRender()" and "Save" button action event, but that did not help either.
    Please note that the save button also changes the "setReadOnly" back to TRUE for all text fields. That means, users view the page in Read-Only mode after saving. (They have to click on "Edit" button again to edit it). I discovered that if I do not set the text field components in "ReadOnly" mode, then they display the updated value of the fields. But if I change setReadOnly to TRUE, then they display the old values (before the save).
    Any idea what I am doing wrong here?
    Thanks

    Here is my experience with it. I have three text
    boxes to be filled out. They are part of a virtual
    form with an add button as the submit. You can fill
    out the 3 and add them and a node is added to a tree
    component. When you click on a node in the tree
    component (the submit to another virtual form that
    the 3 buttons participate in) the text fields should
    be loaded with the values that they where added with.Hard to tell from this explanation, but if the text fields do not participate in a virtual form, then they are not going to get updated when an action in the virtual form happens. Not sure this is your problem. Like I say, hard to tell from this explanation.
    They will not display the values though...having
    nothing to do with read only. If I disable them
    before hand...they display the updated values. If I
    set their value at the top or bottom of prerender,
    they display the change...if I set the value in an if
    conditional that is hit (I have checked many times)
    in prerender, they will not display the values. If I
    set them in the tree handler anywhere, they will not
    display the values. This is very frustrating and is
    wasting tons of my time...I simply want to load the
    text fields based on the tree node that was
    clicked...I have messed with this for hours and it
    certainly does not work.Well, setting them in the tree handler won't work because the tree handler gets called in the page instance that handles the submit and not the page instance that renders the response.
    Posting your prerender code might help. Also, your action handler.

  • Read only Text Field for a Date Picker?? (how to)

    Hi,
    We have BPM Object presentations where we need to accept date values and the presentation puts Date Picker by default. But the text box associated with the date picker is editable. Is there a way so that I can make it non-editable so that i can enforce the data entry via date picker only (a typical use case)?
    Thanks in advance,
    user8702013.

    Hi,
    In the BPM Object's Presentation editor for the presentation, click the date field. On the right, click the "Properties" tab. Change the field's "Editable" property for this presentation from the default ("Yes") to "No". This only effects this one presentation.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to dynamically replace variables in SMARTFORM texts based on item data?

    Hi experts,
    I'm currently designing a confirmation of order using Adobe PDF forms. The general layout with tables, pictures and texts was not big deal.
    But one tiny bit doesn't work and I'm becoming more and more desperate about it.
    We need various free texts for our pdf form. I created the texts using smartform texts. Some of these texts need to be slightly dynamic, so I added some dynamic fields in it.
    For example:
         "The material is currently out of stock.You can expect shipping around week &num_week&."
    To replace the dynamic field &num_week& in my interface, I read that I have to name the dynamic field exactly like the corresponding field in my interface. In my case this would be now:
         "The material is currently out of stock.You can expect shipping around week &SLS_PRT_COM-ITEM_DETAIL-ZZ_EXTRAFIELDS-ZZWEEKNUM&."
    To see the text on my form, I added a text object with type 'text module' and the proper textname. Of course I'm able to insert text on my form, save and activate it without problems. But if I want to print the form, nothing happens as the print program exits with an error code.
    After some hours I found out that this problem only occurs if I'm trying to replace the dynamic field with a field from the item table. Using a field from head details or globals like sy-mandt works like a charm.
    So my question is: Is it possible to use item data to replace dynamic fields of a smartform text?
    Greetings and thanks in advance!

  • BI 7.0 : Error in loading text of a Master Data with a data source time dep

    I have a problem loading text from the data source(time dep) to the Master Data.
    For instance if the Data Source 0EVALGROUP1_TEXT is time dependent as there are the fields DATETO and DATEFROM, while i create the transformation these 2 fileds does not have any target fields. After i create the infopackage and execute it to load into the PSA, i have a error message : the message says "An error occurred in the source system."and "The error occurred in Extractor "; and the PSA is empty.
    Can anyone tell me if there is an OSS note to apply for this kind of problem, actually we are running under SAPKW70015 SAP_BW.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    Pl try the below
    The l_dta data target that you want to load is an InfoObject (master data or text
    table).
    You must declare this for the InfoProvider in Transaction RSD1.
    You do this on the 'Master Data/Text' tab by assigning any InfoArea to the InfoObject.
    The InfoProvider (that is, this InfoObject) is then displayed below this InfoArea in
    the InfoProvider tree.

  • Live text to Paths Meta Data

    This request originated on another list.
    The attributes/notes can be used to add text meta-data to objects, which has been around for a long time and is very helpful.
    I would love Illus/InDesign to automatically write the font details (font family and or other formatting) to the outlined paths when text is converted from live editable text to outlined vector paths.
    There is nothing worse than being given an outlined file as the only data by a client and then asked to make text changes or to match the font for use in a new job.
    A very helpful person named Rick Gordon gave me some help in doing this via AppleScript (see below) - however it would be good if this was hard wired into Illus and InDesign so that file originators would tag the font data to the paths when they first outline the editiable text.
    SCRIPT:
    tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
    tell document 1
    set storyText to text of story of selection
    set fontName to name of text font of text of story of selection
    tell selection
    tell storyText
    set propList to {fontName, return, size, return, leading, return, tracking,
